In our family we have a certain tradition, but it all started by mistake! For our birthday Dad normally gets the birthday girl a foil balloon, so naturally that’s what happened on Caidries birthday a couple of years ago. Well, one of her sisters (who probably wasn’t me... insert nervous laugh here!! 😊) was running with the balloon when it broke right off of the string and floated up, up, up to the 16 foot vault in our ceiling. There was no way to get it down (seriously 16 FEET!!) so we just waited. Good thing we weren’t on a time crunch because it lasted 4 months!! After that it became a tradition to let the birthday balloon go! So far the record is 7 months, held by my 11th birthday balloon!! Larren just had her birthday so it was time for “the balloon releasing ceremony!”
Success!!
